Assertion (A) : Social welfare is a dynamic concept.

Reason (R) : It is the responsibility of the community and the state to promote the well-being of the underprivileged and disadvantaged people of society.

Answer the question using the codes given below :

Codes :

  • A.Both (A) and (R) are true and (R) is the correct explanation of (A)
  • B.Both (A) and (R) are true but (R) is not the correct explanation of (A)
  • C.(A) is true but (R) is false
  • D.(A) is false but (R) is true

Answer: B

The key is B: both statements are true, but R is not the correct explanation of A.

Social welfare is called dynamic because what counts as welfare changes with society's needs, values and resources, so (A) is true. It is also true that the community and the State bear a responsibility for the well-being of the disadvantaged (R).

But R describes who is responsible, not why the concept changes over time. Responsibility could be fixed and the concept still static. So R does not explain A. Option A would need R to account for the changing nature of welfare, and C and D deny the truth of statements that are accepted.
